An independent UN human rights expert on Wednesday expressed concern over Canada's temporary foreign worker programmes, describing them as “a breeding ground for contemporary forms of slavery”.
Yeah, sorry, but no. That’s not slavery. If you’re present in the country illegally and working illegally and could be returned home at any time, you may not be making as much as you would if you were present legally, but you are not compelled to work. You can always terminate working and return to the country where you are legally supposed to be. If you choose to be in Country A illegally and working there rather than in Country B legally and working (for less) there, that is your choice, and you are not being compelled to work.
Please read the article before making your xenophobic proclamation. This has nothing to do with “illegal” immigration. The Temporary Foreign Worker program brings in employees legally. Once in Canada many employers illegally exploit these employees under threat that if the employees report their conditions, their contract will be terminated.

Slavery entails someone being compelled to work.

That still is not slavery. The person in question is still not compelled to work.
Yeah you’re right they could just choose to starve to death I suppose.
Fucking dumbass
